I readily confess: It may be fantastic exiting to observe how clouds are forming, changing, sometimes into silhouettes of persons, historic and prehistoric animals, portraits aso, but – please – have your camera ready – focused for long distance – at all times! Things may change for better or worse within seconds . . .

Trodde du skyer var ‘hvite’? Jo, i utgangspunktet er de jo det. Det er tykkelsen på skylaget som er bestemmende for om de an tar gråtoner eller blir blygrått/svart, men – så finnes det ytterligere et element: Is-partikler! Noen skyer er spesielt høytflyvende, og som regel er de lettest synlige i kaldere årstider, men det hender at det er kaldt nok der oppe også en sommer dag.Did you think that clouds were white? Well, originally they are! It’s the thickness of cloud layers which govern whether the colors should seem light grey or deep lilac blue, but – then there is another element up there: Ice crystal particles! Some of these clouds are flying really high where the temperatures are low enough to support the creation of ice particles.
Usually to be seen through the colder periods of the year, but on rare occasions also on a warm summer day!
